being that we didn't even touch Locker all damn game, I don't think our DBs played that bad. The pass inter. call was utter bullcrap and we played a whole lot of soft zone.
You just can't expect the dbs to cover great all game long when you get no pressure on the QB. And when we did get pressure, Locker immediately just threw the ball away. We have GOT to get better pressure on the QB or we are going to have a long season.

We "touched" Locker more than you think. Anyway, that QB had the speed and size to run, which made playing straight up man all night difficult.

I mean, do you really want four to five DBs backs turned away from the QB when he run 4.4?

We played a lot of soft zone. We also tighten up on zone coverage and played man. On two or three third and longs, we blitz and paid the price.

I say it has to do more with the pass rush than coverage.
